    26 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story of the game receives mixed reviews, with some players finding it compelling and well-integrated with the lore of the Forgotten Realms, while others criticize it as dull and lacking depth compared to earlier titles in the series. Many appreciate the new characters, epic battles, and the connection between the first and second games, but some feel that the NPCs and overall narrative do not live up to the franchise's legacy. Overall, the game offers a blend of engaging quests and a longer main storyline, though it is marred by technical issues and a perceived lack of challenge.

    • “Not only did this game contain references to the Forgotten Realms, but it also had a lot of content from various books by Wizards of the Coast and even had a good back-and-forth storyline if you want to go the NPC route and not make a custom party.”
    • “Compelling story, new locations filled with details and side quests, epic battles, plus a memorable cast of new and returning characters.”
    • “A fun interquel ripe with a fresh story, new companions, and adventure!”
    • “The story was dull, the NPCs were less realistic than BG1 or BG2, it did not add anything to the original stories; it's bad.”
    • “However, the story is complete and utter garbage.”
    • “The main storyline was a lot longer.”
  • gameplay
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay in "Siege of Dragonspear" shows improvements in mechanics and storytelling compared to its predecessors, but some players feel it lacks the depth and variety found in "Icewind Dale." While the use of class and race-specific gear adds a layer of strategy, the overall experience is perceived as somewhat shallow, with nerfed spells and simplified dialogue options detracting from the challenge and engagement.

    • “I played Icewind Dale and Heart of Winter; now Siege of Dragonspear is a very good work. I see some improvements in gameplay and storytelling as well, but I do like more of the things I can do in Icewind Dale. Some spells got nerfed, and it's a little bit hard. As someone who finished Icewind Dale, I am playing this on easy, and still, I think it would be cool if it were easier to level up!”
    • “I have a Note 8, and the stylus makes gameplay so easy.”
    • “There are lots of gear with smarter mechanics, including class-specific and race-specific gear.”
    • “Man, playing this feels shallow compared to the mainline Baldur's Gate. The gameplay is average, but that dialogue tree feels dumbed down.”

    • “The game loads slowly and the controls are buggy.”
